U-Predict, The Radio Tarot Experiment: Tesla’s Energy – from Electricity to the Pyramids (Air dates: June 3, 10, and 17)

After our first show on Tesla, I produced a blog about what Tarot had disclosed. 

http://upredict.blogspot.com/2014/06/u-predict-tarot-radio-experience-lost.html

I had planned on one more show, based on Tesla’s belief that there was a cosmic energy force that he was about to tap into.  His laboratory in Colorado had produced and early solar cell; he had joined these cells together, and was producing electricity.  So that became the second question – had Tesla seen solar as the energy source, or was he truly looking deeply into the cosmos, and had figured out how to tap an unknown source or perhaps dark energy itself.    The reading Room included: Anita Perez, Jean Maurie Puhlman, Ivy Lieberman, and ReeNee Cummins.  We had some great commentary from a regular listener – Supernatural Radio on the topic as well. 

Our discussion and questioning about Tesla’s source lead to so interesting psychic interpretation of the man himself.  Jean Maurie stated that he was an “old soul,” something the rest of the Reading Room readily agreed with.   Supernatural Radio commented “I think he knew much about other worldly energy.” Ivy Lieberman drew cards that were interpreted as “he was being guided by the Cosmos; the universe was pushing him with his work.”  We pulled the Moon in synchronicity again.  The Reading Room had agreed on the previous show that this pertained to Tesla’s psychic abilities, and that some of his ideas were other worldly.  This also caused problems as he grappled to bring other dimensional technologies into this one.

One card was a serious carry-over from the previous show.  The 9 of Swords came up again in synchronicity on this show – Tesla was deeply disappointed about how his vision turned out.  We had strong showings from the King of Swords and the King of Pentacles; Swords represents the military and it’s fascination with Tesla (something he abhorred) and Pentacles represents the capital and backers that Tesla drove away with his talk of “cosmic energy” and other more esoteric ideas he had.

We then went back to the idea that Tesla had experimented with solar energy.  We talked about that both it and wind energy, while not free, were far healthier for the planet.  We talked about advancements in solar and wind energy making possible for average home owners to use these devices to cut their energy bills drastically.  We asked if there would be an energy revolution using solar or wind.  The Tarot was insistent that old forms of energy would continue to be used; the official policy will be of a society familiar with what is shown to be good on TV adds.  This doesn’t mean that people (especially younger people) won’t move away from the old technology and onto new.  There will reach a point where savings outweigh nostalgia, and society moves forward.

The final card we pulled in synchronicity for this show was the World.  The Reading Room saw so many ways how this card affected this situation.  First, there is Tesla’s idea that we should share and promote equanimity among all the inhabitants of the planet.  This was one of the foremost ideas driving his ideas.  We all agreed that using basically free power sources (solar and wind) we would be helping the planet.  While it would never completely be free because of the cost of the machinery to capture and distribute the energy, we could and would save both the environment and money by not buying fossil energy to generate energy to run our lives.

While researching Tesla’s solar cell, I ran across the writings of someone who we had discussed on an earlier edition of U-Predict, Christopher Dunn.  Christopher Dunn is a fascinating individual.  He started out working in a machine shop learning to machine stone and metal, as he matured, he studied more and more on how to best do the machining.  His interest in machining lead to a fascination with archeology – especially sites that showed incredibly fine machining.  One if his main fascination was with the Pyramids of Egypt.  He wrote several articles about how Tesla’s ideas could be applied to the structure of the Pyramids in an attempt to prove that they were power plants.   While we had discussed the idea that Egypt had a public power supply, Tarot explained that our technology nowhere matched it; and that with our science we couldn’t understand it.  However, here was an interesting angle to investigate.  Had Dunn discovered the corollary between the two power systems?  This was the question for the third show.

The Reading Room included:  Jean Maurie Puhlman, Mary Nale, Koneta Bailey, Camille Kea, Patti Phare Camp, and ReeNee Cummins.  We were joined by new reader Pfishgirl and WalkWithSpirit who has read with us before.  As had been mentioned in the previous show, we had done a reading about the Egyptian power source, and Tesla’s name had come up as part of the discussion. 

We also got more psychic impressions about Tesla himself.  Mary Nale said she saw someone who got his ideas in dreams.  During the first show, we had introduced the idea that Tesla saw his dream inventions clearly enough to build them without plans.  Many impressions of Tesla echoed the 9 of Swords which had been synchronistic in both previous shows.  Patti Phare Camp intuited that “Tesla was struggling with the technology; I think he abandoned it because he came to understand the technology was flawed.” Mary Nale added that “I feel like none of the information was what he thought it would be.”  This also was an echo from the previous show where we discussed the difficulties of reproducing an energy source he saw in the Cosmos back here on earth. One had to wonder if he had misinterpreted what he was receiving as something more mysterious when it was simply sunlight.  Koneta Bailey claimed she “heard” that from the cards she pulled several times.   Both Patti and Jean Maurie also talked about that Tesla being so far advanced as to have a hard time communicating his ideas to other human beings (this fact is historically proven by the number of investors he lost when he began to give them a complete picture of what he was trying to do with “cosmic energy”). Instead of the 9 of Swords, we pulled the 3 of Swords – this speaks more of personal heartbreak.

Mary also saw a young man about 8 or 9 who spoke no English who would carry on the work.  ReeNee announced that the Russians planned on completing some of Tesla’s work and would be building a tower like the one at Wardenclyffe ( http://inhabitat.com/russian-physicists-launch-campaign-to-rebuild-teslas-wardenclyffe-tower-and-power-the-world/  ).

While the 9 of Swords did not carry to this show, the World card did.  One thing that immediately came to everyone’s mind was the fact that there are pyramids all over the planet.  Many rogue archaeologists are looking at these structures either from an energy standpoint or some kind of spiritual energy standpoint that allowed people to “sync up with the planet.”  The World card had been pulled in synchronicity when we talked about Egypt having electricity on the earlier show.  On the Egyptian energy show, the World card has prompted these musings “How would our world change if we had knowledge that there had been an advanced civilization all over the planet that was somehow destroyed?  Would this become a focus of the current civilization – finding out what happened?

The King of Pentacles again showed up in synchronicity, reminding all of the need of a financial backer.  However, both the Queen and King of Wands showed up in synchronicity.  Several readers wondered if this is the Clintons.  Hillary doesn't have to run for president to make this happen; they have The Clinton Foundation, which was created to tackle the world’s problems.  Bill and Melinda Gates also share control of the Gates Foundation.  So here are two power couples who would be very interested in any technology that helped all of mankind.  Both foundations are interested in new ideas and new ways to solve ancient problems.  This matches the spirit and energy behind the King and Queen of Wands.


We also pulled an interesting pair of Major Arcana for this show.  We, of course, got the High Priestess.  She was here to announce that we still lack some knowledge and foresight to either recreate the Egyptian Energy system or to complete Tesla’s vision of cosmic energy.  However, we also pulled the Magician – the individual with the skill to make it happen.  Mary saw a young boy as Tesla’s successor; or perhaps his reincarnation.  Is this the Magician?  Do the Russians have the brilliance to prove Tesla right?  And which philanthropic foundation headed by and man and woman give the support needed to bring the new technology to fruition?  U-Predict…

U-Predict, 9/17/2012 – the Disappointment of the Hierophant – The Readers tackle “Did Ancient Egypt have Electricity?”

There is archaeology, and then there is rogue archaeology.  Neither match the romantic idea of Dr. Indiana Jones – archaeology is slow and laborious.  Currently, the most published and televised data supports the ideas that have been around from the last century; the Egyptians were obsessed by the afterlife.  They preserved the bodies of the royalty.  They built massive pyramid-shaped tombs for these royals.  It’s in elementary text books – It was there in the 60’s when I was in elementary school, and it hasn’t changed.

Then there is rogue archaeology.  These are the “crazy like a fox” archaeologists who notice things like “gee they never found a body in the crypts in the pyramids”; and “it would have taken the Egyptians over 2000 years to build the pyramids – not the 20 as recorded in the text books.  Names like Graham Hancock and Carmen Boulter, PhD lead the field.  Regular science is outraged by their theories, and the support they are gathering.  So against this background U-Predict asking an interesting question “Did the ancient Egyptians have electricity?”  Psychics that participated in the Reading Room included:  IvyLieberman, Latifah Abdul'laah (Underland Tarot Musings), Jean Maurie Puhlman, Anita Perez, Elizabeth Dennan, Becky Graywolf (WindLady) ReeNee Cummins, and Dax Carlisle.

The first question was “Did the Egyptians build the pyramids?”  Most of the Reading Room felt that the pyramids were much older – that they were inherited or claimed by the civilization that we think of as the Egyptians. 
The second question was “Does archaeology give us a correct picture about the use of the pyramids?”  The readers indicated that science wanted to keep the whole thing tidy, and to continue down the same line of research, while ignoring things they couldn’t explain.  We had our first Project TAROT moment with The World card; one being upright, the other reversed.  This was Major Arcana proof of what we had been talking about.  One World showed us that we had a complete theory of the civilization; the other showed that there was a whole theory and research yet to be pursued.

The Reading Room turned its attention to the work of Nikola Tesla.  Because Tesla theorized other ways of generating/distributing electricity, many of the rogue archaeologists look to these theories to expand the possibilities that the Egyptian civilization was much more advanced than defined.  The Project TAROT moment came with the Tower card.  There was amusement, as Tesla’s theories utilized towers to distribute electricity.  However, a deeper meaning of the Tower card is a person who truly shakes things up.  Tesla’s theories definitely did that – and now they are being revisited to see if they are more efficient in energy transmission/distribution. 

The next two questions flowed together:  “Were the conditions right to generate electricity with the pyramids 10 – 15,000 years ago?” and “Were electric power tools used to cut monuments in Egypt?”  The Reading Room identified that there was a power source, but that it would not be understood by our level of science.  This would explain why few archaeologists would recognize the technology.  The Reading Room identified that the lasers were used to cut/shape the stones.  Jean Maurie identified the laser tools, and Dax immediately got confirmation with a yes/no spread (5 cards to the yes).  This is one area that the rogue archaeologists focus on – the fact that the stone work from ancient Egypt is so fine and accurate.

At this point Anita Perez called in and talked about some past life work she had done with a group of people.  She had talked about being in a chamber and using the resonance of the chamber and a crystal to amplify energy.  She said that the group of people weren’t sure that they had the proper technique.  ReeNee told the listeners that chambers exactly like those Anita described that had been discovered by Dr. Carmen Boulter.  These chambers had used resonance.  However their actual purpose remains a mystery.
The final two questions:  “Will hard evidence ever arise about advanced ancient civilizations?” and “Does science understand that it is hurting its authenticity with its current theories?”  are best answered by the Project TAROT moment cards for the entire show:  Five of Cups, The World, The Hierophant, and The Lovers.  The Five of Cups is about disappointment.  The rogue archaeologists are disappointed that their ideas are ignored.  Mainstream archaeology faces the disappointment of disappearing funding for expeditions, no support from Middle-Eastern governments to do research, and the destruction of potential sites by desert nomads.  Overall disappointment from a collective consciousness standpoint is that we want to know.  People are interested and are getting more interested in the unexplained artifacts in the world. 

This now refers to The World card.  How would our world change if we had knowledge that there had been an advanced civilization all over the planet that was somehow destroyed?  Would this become a focus of the current civilization – finding out what happened?  Or would most people want not to be bothered with ancient problems or disasters.  The Hierophant represents traditional science.  Science is already dealing with the rejection of evolution by fundamentalist religions; what would be the result if long established facts were overturned in another discipline?


The final card is The Lovers.  This card may appear surprising, but in actuality it makes a lot of sense.  There is a lot of romance about archaeology and ancient cultures.  There also is a lot of romance about a lost civilization and what we could learn from such a discovery.  The Lovers is also a card of choice – which is our true love?  Do we want the next generation of scientists to stick to tradition or are we willing to have them dig deeper and perhaps overturn long cherished beliefs?   U-Predict…

U-Predict – The Tarot Radio Experience: The Lost Documents of Nikola Tesla (Air Date: 06/03/2014)

This was a very interesting show.  The number of synchronicities was small – but they told the crux of the situation with Tesla.  We began with the premise that Nikola Tesla chose to live in hotel rooms.  That there were more than a dozen boxes of Tesla’s belongings left behind at hotels like the Waldorf Astoria, the Governor Clinton Hotel and the St. Regis that were sold to pay off Tesla’s outstanding bills. Most of these boxes and the secrets they contained have never been found. What major discoveries were lost in these papers?  Tarot answered with the concept that the man was ahead of his time, someone who wanted to make life fair for everyone; a mystic who had feet planted another dimension – and he wanted to share this other dimension with the public.  This assured that Tesla was seen as “unusual” if not down-right weird.  Because of these things, he was taken advantage of and misunderstood by most people.

The Reading Room for this show included:  Anita Perez, Jean Maurie Puhlman, Camille Kea, and ReeNee Cummins.  We welcomed SeerJane as a new reader for this show. 

When Tarot was asked to explain Tesla, we were told that his whole purpose was to close the gap between the haves and the havenots.  He felt that energy was the cause of the great divide.  His purpose was to come up with ways to make energy cheaply or free for every person on earth.  Because he was so concerned about making life as fair and good as he could, he really didn’t care personally if people stole his ideas or lied about his purpose.  He worked with the identified geniuses of his time.  However, both Edison and Westinghouse stole his ideas.   

Jean Maurie pulled his destiny card. Jean stated “in the destiny cards he was 5 diamonds - Like all 5’s, 5 of diamonds dislike routine and abhor anything that pretends to limit their freedom or put them in a box. They can be perpetual wanderers, never settling down for anything long enough to make it pay off.”

He became involved in mysticism, visiting several Indian gurus when they came to the New York area.  Anita Perez mentioned that Krishnamurti was popular at the time.  Tesla became fascinated with ancient Buddhist and Hindu text from India.  In these texts he found the Sanskrit metaphysical terms for the different kinds of energy and forces in the Universe.  It opened up his understanding of energy of all kinds.  However, he saw no difference between the electrical experiments that he was describing to investors and his metaphysical investigations.  Many investors saw him as a lunatic for these discussions.  It is one of the ways he got the name “mad scientist” as well as lost many, many investors.

We asked about his involvement with the US government and deadly weapons.  The Tarot told us that Tesla understood the power of the energy he experimented with and did not want people killed by his discoveries.  He actually sent copies of some of his experiments to several governments around the world so that no one would have the only weapon built from his designs.  We asked if the US Government had designed the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) based on Tesla’s work.  The cards were adamant that Tesla had not intended any of his work to be used for any kind of weapon or have any military purpose.  The Tarot indicated that some of his concepts may have been conscripted by the military; Tesla himself had not intended this to be the case.
The Reading Room thought it would be wonderful to channel Tesla.  Jean Maurie found some examples of people claiming channeled contact:


Anita said she was part of a channeling group that tried to contact Tesla, but al they got was the smell of pot roast.  ReeNee reminded everyone that he lived in hotels, and that may have been a favorite food!

We asked why his documents had never turned up.  We got the Moon and Death Reversed.  Tarot indicated that there was nothing but treachery surrounding these documents.  We also asked if it took his genius to make his experiments work (it was claimed that he had a photographic memory, and that he dreamed inventions so real that he could get up and draw up plans for the inventions from his dreams).  The cards indicated that he was a very unique man; however, there will be others (perhaps even a reincarnation) that can follow in his footsteps.


The cards that were pulled in synchronicity were the Hierophant and the Lovers.  The Hierophants of big business and the conventional thinking of the time lead to his downfall.  The Lovers takes on an interesting romantic meaning with Tesla – he was in love with his work.  He was in love with what he could discover, and what it could do for all mankind.  The only other card that was pulled in synchronicity was the 9 of Swords.  Again, it is a card that clouded his whole life.  He simply could not understand the inhumanity of the big industrialists of his time.  He could not deal with human treachery, and the desire to destroy others.  The sad thing is that for many years after his death, he was seen as a dangerous mad scientist.  Has our investigation changed your mind?   U-Predict…

U-Predict: The Tarot Radio Experiment – Explain Ghosts (Air Date: 5/27/14)

I’ve lost count of the people I’ve met who claim they lived in a haunted house.  At a major aerospace plant in California, I dealt with a haunted building (employee hung himself at the end of the Apollo program). The Queen Mary in California and Ashley's restaurant, both on the national register of haunted places, are two of my favorite places.   But our pop-culture fascination with ghosts started with a pair of plumbers.  Most people laughed at the idea that Roto-Router guys could find ghosts.  I didn’t.  I’m a contractor’s kid. I know how old buildings can trick you - creaky woodwork, bad plumbing, and all sorts of things that could fool an occupant.  In fact, I thought it was pretty cool that these guys were willing to go up against public scrutiny.  I don’t know why it took us two years to decide to ask about ghosts and hauntings on U-Predict, but the results are interesting, with a lot of wisdom.

The Reading Room for this show included:  Anita Perez, Jean Maurie Puhlman, TarotDactyl (Mary Brown), Camille Kea, Ivy Lieberman, and ReeNee Cummins.

We started with the basics.  Yes, ghosts are the electromagnetic signature of a deceased person.  However, Tarot was quick to tell us that there was a strong emotional component to a ghost.  In fact, as the reading unfolded, it became obvious that it is the emotional component that is the most important part of a “haunting.”    First, we had an abundance of Knights (Cups, Wands, and Pentacles).  Knights are an adolescent energy.  It is a sign of broad energy swings – usually on verge of being out-of-control.  We also drew the King of Swords -the warrior.  This synchronicity is interesting because of the number of hauntings that involve soldiers.  We also had the Ace of Swords and the Ace of Cups - both cards focused on big ideas and big emotion.   So there was the description of a classic haunting – a person who had been through a traumatic emotion experience or feels they have something to communicate.

The reading room discussed intelligent hauntings (where an entity interacts with the living), and residual hauntings (where something is imprinted on space/time but is replayed over and over).  We brought up the idea of a person being haunted; someone being bothered by a ghost even if they move several times.  The cards were quick to bring a warning.  A person must know how to protect themselves psychically before they become involved in any way with ghosts or ghost hunting.  We pulled the Empress several times when we were talking about this question.  This a card of love and protection; the definitive answer came when TarotDactyl announced that in the Ghosts & Spirits Tarot deck she was using, the Empress was the "Guardian Spirit." It was discussed that the ghost could be discouraged to stop the haunting, but that the person being haunted would have to have a great deal of emotional strength and courage to stop the event.  In fact that was another point the card made, the more people emotionally interact with an entity (especially with the jolt of energy released with fear) the stronger the entity can become.  The cards also stressed this when we asked if going on a ghost tour was completely harmless.  Again, the cards were quick to make sure you are dealing with professionals and then make sure that you are grounded and shielded before going on the tour.

The Reading Room also talked about the idea of “hauntings” being caused by many types of spiritual beings.  We talked about the fact that there was the elemental kingdom full of entities who liked to play tricks on mortals.  We talked about the idea of poltergeists, and that people may have psychokinetic abilities that are triggered by strong emotions, while they have no idea that they are the cause of the activity. 

We asked about “sending entities to the light.”  Is it permanent?   Is it necessary? The answer we got from the cards is that reality is more porous than most people realize.  We got the 6 of and 9 of Wands in synchronicity.  The six speaks to the societal aspect that ghosts are drawn to the living.  The 9 speaks about treating these souls fairly.  Some ghosts may know something is very wrong, but don’t know they are dead.  These souls are very happy to cross the veil, and will not return.  Jean Maurie pulled an Angel Tarot card on this topic and got the 5 of Gabriel “you needn’t go through your current challenges alone. Help is nearby! Negative thoughts create self-fulfilling prophesies."   Ivy Lieberman got “there will be a moment of thought then you will be directed to the proper place to go.  Perhaps hastened along.”   Others, however, are well aware of their situation; they are either drawn back because of the emotion or a few just seem to enjoy hanging (or messing) with the living.  The Tarot also talked about ghosts being drawn to the living who may have an addiction.  The emotion in participating in the addiction is the attraction.   The point the Tarot is trying to make is that you have to look at how your behavior is attracting the entity.  Ghost hunters should treat the entities with respect; no need to bait to get a response.  If a ghost chooses not to move on, the living need to decide how they are going to exist with the entity (if they can).

There were 3 Major Arcana cards in synchronicity - The Fool, The Empress, and The Lovers.  In a previous paragraph, we talked about The Empress as being protective beings as a part of shielding before engaging with entities.  The Fool speaks to the forgiving nature of the Universe.  Tarot said that some spirits had problems moving on because they felt unworthy to have an afterlife.  As society reports more on experiences with the afterlife, and the interest in Near Death Experiences grows, hopefully people will realize that they can move toward the light no matter how traumatic their lives have been.  With the Lovers, both archetypes apply.  There is the archetype of romantic love (again, the idea of strong emotion) and well as making the choice to go to the light. 

By far the most moving part of the show was when Camille Kea talked about seeing her grandmother’s spirit leaving her body when she died.  The Reading Room agreed that it was a profound experience.  The experiences of the Reading Room always add astonishing personal experiences to the topics we discuss.


So does this answer questions about ghosts?  U-Predict…
